If you do go the uvb route use a long strip kind as opposed to the "coil" or "prong" shaped screw in uvb. These types of bulbs can burn the eyes of reptiles. UVB absorption is more necessary in creatures who eat plans and leafy greens as the uvb from the sun aids in in their production of calcium . animals like snakes who eat things like mice who eat things like grass are getting the uvb from the mouse or similar type creature. Who got it from the sun and grass.
